Alexander Hamilton: Soldier, Secretary, Icon

In this exhibition, the Smithsonian's National Postal Museum will explore the extraordinary life of Alexander Hamilton (1755-1804) through original mail sent and signed by him in his role as the first Secretary of the Treasury and through portraits of him and his contemporaries on postage and revenue stamps. The experience is augmented by in-gallery interactives and educational programming, coinciding with the Washington dates of the national touring version of “Hamilton: An American Musical.”
